Despite the fact that heels make legs look leaner, toner and the whole body starts to move in a more feminine way when wearing them, sometimes nothing can beat a pair of good old Chucks. Especially when wearing floaty palazzo trousers! Why? Sneakers or a pair of flat sandals are just the safest pick if you want to prevent yourself from tangling into those wide trousers and potentially falling. Khm... Trust me - been there, done that.

So today I wanted to say goodbye to May in a very comfy yet springy way, before fully diving myself into summer-ish wardrobe.
I combined cropped floral sweater with my trusty summer palazzo trousers to create this sporty-chic look and added a pair of pink Chucks to match the flower embroidery on the sleeves. Very simple outfit but great for running errands in the city before it gets too hot.

I still vividly remember my sister wearing this corset top back when she was in high school and I always thought to myself how cool she looks in it. Today, quite few years later Im rockin' it my way and it still looks like I bought it in Zara yesterday. How crazy it is to think its already been 10 years since my high school and quite few more from hers, yet this top is again, after all this years a "must have" for fashionistas this summer?!

Fashion tip:

In order for the corset to really make a statement in a non-tacky way, I styled it with the same colored cropped vintage Levis jeans and black shirt-dress under it, to really make it pop. But since I feel corset tops can be quite in your face or even daring if you wish, I like to style them with longer layers under it, so the material underneath flows while walking and makes everything more airy and mysterious. Ok, but also to make a contrast between a lean torzo and optically elongated legs.

I've recently come back from Palma de Mallorca, where my taste buds got the first taste of summer. I was so excited about it that I've decided to make a very summery outfit today while the memories still last. Also, I'll admit this beach dress reminds me of Spain, this gorgeous red embellishment just screams Spain, doesn't it?, so I needed to incorporate it into my wardrobe ASAP.

Fashion tip:
We usually wear beach dresses only on the beach - as the name obviously suggests. It's a shame given how light-weight and comfortable they are, and that they're something we all gravitate towards even when we're not by the sea. So I styled this gorgeous Women'secret beach dress in a completely street style way to make the most of it before I even hit the sand. But since the dress is a bit transparent I've layered it over a lace bralette and high waisted pants, and left just a little bit of skin peeking out, making the whole look discreet and very wearable.

I like to say I am not really a big spender when it comes to clothing shopping even though ironically, my job spins around it everyday. Instead of buying endless amounts of clothes, I prefer getting just few pieces every now and than. Pieces that are different to what I already own and for which I'm sure I'll get a lot of use out of with all my old stuff, are the ones that draw my attention. With that being said today's outfit is quite an oldie - meaning that everything I wear have been
hanging in my closet for the longest time. The only new addition to it is a new pair of flats from Mass, which triggered a completely new styling idea I haven't thought of before and I'm lovin' it so much.

Fashion tip:
You probably already know how much I like to match accessories in an outfit and like to draw a red line to my outfits in a way all together makes sense. And this is exactly what I did this time as well. Eyelets on my flats match with the bag and corset belt so well I had to put them all together since they kinda look like they come together in a set, don't they? So what I did is I literally just "connected the dots", put all three of them together and let the accessories do all the talking while I left everything else pretty simple.

I was never fully comfortable with wearing all white looks yet I've always admired people who did and nailed it. There is just something so fresh and sophisticated about it and with "warmer weather" fast approaching, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and give it a try. I pulled out my old white jeans, trimmed the hems off and styled it with an oversized shirt. Pretty simple, but I couldn't help myself than to incorporate a little bit of black in the styling as well. And I think it made wonders. At the end every jin need a little bit of jang for the perfect balance, right?!

What kind of an outfit would you wear if you had to pick one and wear it everyday from now on? Today's outfit is the kind I would pick for myself. Its the one I feel like represents me the most and which I wear on days I need to be comfy/ out the door in a minute or when "I have nothing to wear".
Very simple, yet a little bit different. The asymmetric top makes it a little bit more fun, the beige jacket gives an edgy touch to it and the star scarf makes it not so plain and ties everything together.
Now lets hope for warmer days so we can all ditch all of the layers and start wearing flipflops and floaty things!
